    By: Nancy Tartaglione November 13, 2009 4:03am EST
    See-Saw Films and Bedlam Productions have begun principal photography on 'The King's Speech.'
  • Brideshead Revisited Review
    By: Pete Hammond July 25, 2008 6:25am EST
    You could not ask for a better screen adaptation of Brideshead Revisited. It’s a stunning, gripping and visually sumptuous cinematic feast that is like a breath of fresh air in the onslaught of summer movies. But purists, beware.
  • August Rush Review
    By: Brian Marder November 21, 2007 7:49am EST
    August Rush comes dangerously close to being too feel-good for its own good, but the dynamic trio of strong performances, magical imagery and nonstop music prevails.
  • Balls of Fury Review
    By: Kit Bowen August 31, 2007 11:38am EST
    The surprisingly funny Balls of Fury’s tagline may read, “A Huge Comedy with Tiny Balls,” but it has some big, brass ones, too.
  • Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Review
    By: Kit Bowen July 23, 2007 10:07am EST
    Less flash, more grit, The Order of the Phoenix is definitely the most introspective of the Harry Potter movies. If you’re expecting fast-paced wizardry action at every turn, however, you might be disappointed.
  • North Country Review
    By: Brian Marder October 21, 2005 2:03pm EST
    North Country isn't for those short on patience or time. But for the rest of us, the superb acting and relevant theme makes it more than worth it.
  • Kingdom of Heaven Review
    By: Kit Bowen May 06, 2005 4:52am EST
    Between the two of them, Ridley Scott and Orlando Bloom have picked up their swords for Gladiator, Troy and The Lord of the Rings trilogy. And that's the problem. If the intriguing but ultimately derivative Kingdom of Heaven had arrived before these recent period epics, it may have stood a better chance of enthralling us.
  • The Polar Express Review
    By: Kit Bowen November 10, 2004 8:37am EST
    Even though it may lack a human touch here and there, The Polar Express is still a brilliant effort in CGI-animation and will certainly evoke the Christmas spirit in us all.
  • Connie and Carla Review
    By: Kit Bowen April 15, 2004 2:20pm EST
    Although it may take its cue from other gender-benders, it's definitely snaps all around for the delightful and heartfelt Connie and Carla.
  • Looney Tunes: Back in Action Review
    By: Kit Bowen November 13, 2003 1:17pm EST
    It's James Bond! It's Indiana Jones! It's Ocean's Eleven! It's too much. Looney Tunes: Back in Action misses out on a brilliant opportunity to tell a simple story about a rabbit vs. a duck.
